The Oogieloves (Goobie, Zoozie and Toofie), along with their friends J. Edgar, Windy Window and Ruffy, are organizing a party. Everything is going along just perfectly until J. Edgar trips and loses the last five magical balloons in all of Lovelyloveville—oh no! The Oogiloves set out to find the magical balloons in time to save their friend’s party. Along the way, they meet some very interesting characters indeed, including Dotty Rounder (Cloris Leachman), Bobby Wobbly (Carey Elwes), Milky Marvin (Chazz Palminteri), Rosalie Rosebud (Toni Braxton) and Lola and Lero Sombero (Christopher Lloyd and Jaime Pressly). Can these new friends help them recover the magical balloons and get back to the cottage in time to celebrate Schluufy’s surprise birthday?
The Oogieloves movie gives signs that help guide the kids with what to do – butterflies show when to stand up and be interactive, turtles show when it’s time to sit back down. Some characters are focused on love and friendship. Some of their songs are about balloons and how fun it is to get up in the morning; the others I heard are even more inane. This movie is very healthy and fun for the whole family.
Cloris leachman, one of the executive producer and actress of this movie said: “When I made this movie I thought most people won’t take it seriously but is more focused for younger audience (between 2 and 4 years old). I liked triangles so that was part of the movie too. This movie is very interactive full of songs and images in ascendant and vice versa movements. Despite of our low budget we did this including innocence and bravery so and the way that children might enjoy a movie and the characters show their best personality and support of each other for solving issues.”
